Pearlesque® October Box Review + Coupons

"Ciao Bella From Italy"

Pearlesque's October Box takes us to....
ITALY!

and let me tell you, this box is absolutely incredible! 

I L-O-V-E Skin&Co Roma and I was pleasantly surprised when I opened this month's box and found this amazing natural Italian skincare line from Umbria, Italy inside!

Seeing this inside Pearlesque Box told me a very important fact about founder, Rochelle Truxal: 

She definitely does her research on the latest, high performance products available in the skincare industry AND she doesn't skimp on quality. 

Skin&Co Roma has been featured by major fashion magazines such as:

Marie Claire

InStyle

Glamour

and more! 

(See more of Skin&Co Roma in the press here!)

So, let's see what's inside!

• TRUFFLE BODY GEL (Travel Size) - $9
• TRUFFLE BODY MILK (Travel Size) - $11
• UMBRIAN TRUFFLE EXFOLIATING BODY GEL (Luxury Size) - $22
• TRUFFLE THERAPY™ GOMMAGE (Luxury Size) - $32
• ECOPOUF® DELICATE BATH SPONGE (BONUS! Item) - $2.49

This box would cost a whopping $76.49 if you ordered the products on your own!

Pearlesque Box®

If you're ready to expand your skincare knowledge and try something new and exciting, 

Pearlesque Box may be just what you've been searching for!

Meet University of Michigan Alumni and entrepreneur, 

Rochelle Truxal...

Discovering a void in the skincare market, Rochelle Truxal decided to pursue her love of skincare by launching Pearlesque Box. From sharing her findings with friends, family and colleagues, she found her calling and has gone on to share her knowledge with the rest of the world. 

Now, everyone can access her latest and greatest discoveries in natural skincare each and every month through Pearlesque!

So, what IS Pearlesque Box?

Pearlesque is a subscription box focused on the discovery of natural beauty from around the world, providing ONE skincare brand from a different region each month!

And you can say 'goodbye' to sample size portions that do absolutely NOTHING 

for your skincare regimen. 

Pearlesque provides its subscribers with one full-size and 2 - 4 additional travel size products within each box. Allowing ample time to determine the effectiveness of each product.

Yes, you heard correctly...

THERE ARE NO SAMPLE SIZES THROWN INTO THIS BOX!

How much does Pearlesque Box cost and when will I be billed?

Pearlesque Box is $39.95 per month and includes free shipping for US residents. You will be billed for your first box at the time of sign up. Afterwards, you will be automatically placed on a monthly billing cycle and charged on the 20th of each month until you cancel your monthly subscription. 

For new subscribers, you will have until the 5th of that particular month to receive the current month's box (as long as supplies last). If you sign up on the 5th of that month or after, you will receive the following month's box. 

Is it easy to cancel if I decide I no longer wish to subscribe?

Absolutely! Although, I highly doubt you will wish to do so once you see what's inside! 

You can easily cancel your monthly subscription at any time. Once your cancellation is confirmed via email, you will not be billed again or receive any additional boxes.

Just go to your "ACCOUNT SETTINGS" and click the red link under the "SUBSCRIPTIONS" category labeled "CANCEL SUBSCRIPTION."

HOWEVER, YOU MUST CANCEL BY THE 5TH OF THE MONTH, OR YOUR CANCELLATION WILL GO INTO EFFECT THE FOLLOWING MONTH AND YOU WILL STILL RECEIVE THE CURRENT MONTH'S BOX!

UPDATE: REVIEW NOW AVAILABLE!  

Skintimate® Mandarin Burst Shave Gel Review (Courtesy of Crowdtap)

Thanks to Crowdtap I was able to sample and review Skintimate® Mandarin Burst Shave Gel!
For FREE in exchange for my honest opinion. 

I received my package from Crowdtap a little over a week ago. I was positively thrilled to have been accepted into the sampling program and I couldn't wait to open it up and try it out.

Inside the Sampling Kit:

•                   1 Full-Sized can of Skintimate® Mandarin Burst Shave Gel 
•                   1 Sampling Card with instructions on how the sampling program worked.

Here is the box it arrived in.

Inside was 1 full can of Skintimate® Mandarin Burst Shave Gel

and a Sampling Instruction Card.

I really have to give it to Crowdtap. They made sure the can of Skintimate® Shave Gel was really securely packaged to prevent any damage to the product. You can't even begin to imagine how many products I've received that are simply thrown in the box and the company hadn't put any thought into proper packaging!

So, well done, Crowdtap!

And here is the whole deal. 
TADA!

For the time period allotted, I must say, I was extremely surprised. They had quite a lengthy list of things that they asked you to complete prior to the report submission. This pretty much required you to post nearly every day and start your review ASAP. 

Here is a photo of the Sampling Card that was included within the Crowdtap Sampling Kit with the checklist on the back.

Back

And you pretty much had a little over a week to complete EVERYTHING that was required while at the same time not pestering your networks by sounding like a sales rep. 

So, I do think they probably should consider a longer time frame in the future...

This shave gel had a nice fruity scent (not overwhelmingly sweet, but pleasantly so) and left my legs feeling well moisturized, smooth, and very soft. 

I found that I liked so many things about this product. Not just the scent, but the fact that my legs felt much more moisturized and smooth after shaving. Usually, I would NEVER even CONSIDER going to the beach after shaving. (Like anyone hasn't had those nasty, irritating, burning red flare-ups from the salt water, right??!) Well, this time I had absolutely no issues at all. No irritation. No red bumps. It was really a wonderful surprise and I will definitely be purchasing this product in the future, as well as, recommending it to others. I'm actually anxious to try more shave gels within the Skintimate® line! I was seriously THAT impressed.

Again, thank you to both Crowdtap and Skintimate® for allowing me to try this amazing product, for FREE, in exchange for my honest opinions and feedback. I truly enjoyed this sampling opportunity and look forward to participating in more of these in the future!
